Hi Greg,
How do I know if hobbit is using fping?? Root was able to use fping.
Hobbit user can not. Actually, how do I know what user is for hobbit??
The 216.20.121.4 is not an smtp server and I received a connection
refused.
Ls -l "which fping" <-- says no such file or directory
Thanks,
Dave

Are you using fping? Can the hobbit user run fping? Seems like you
have to do some fiddling because fping requires root, and the symptom is
red connectivity tests for everything in the bb-hosts file. This is a
dim memory from when I first set up Hobbit several years ago...

Hi Josh,
Issue 1 - Now, if I look at status page, the status is red, but I can
ping the ip from the hobbit server
Bb-hosts for this test is as follows:
216.20.63.145 mec-dns1 # NET:brutus
216.20.63.147 mec-dns2 # NET:brutus

Issue 1 - what is your hobbit-alert.conf
Issue 2 - no hobbit uses the mail command. Can you give us more detail
as to what the email error is?

I'm new to hobbit and linux so please bear with me. I've looked at
some of the conf files, but can't seem to resolve a couple of issues.
Issue 1 - keep getting critical messages even when status is green on
status screen. Messages come every 5 minutes.
Issue 2 - some messages are not getting thru. has hobbit installed
it's own email server? i've run a mailq command and see a bunch of
messages saying "connection refused" to a specific server. not sure
why it's trying to connect to that server.
Thanks,
Dave
